Answer:

3

Explanation:

The co-ordinates of the smaller and larger triangles are 4,5 3,2 & 6,3 and 12,15 9,6 18,9

To find out dilation factor,

Co-ordinates of smaller triangles* dilation factor=co-ordinates of

larger triangles(or use (kx,ky) where k is the dilation factor and x and y are the co-ordinates)

(4,5) (3,2) (6,3)k=(12,15) (9,6) (18,9)

Equate and solve,

k=(12,15) (9,6) (18,9)/(4,5) (3,2) (6,3)[Informal]

k=3
